Farming With or without Water.

We believe 1t is the universal conclusion
of all people who lave farmed in coun-
try like ours, where irrigation is the rule,
that they would never again attempt to
farm where the rainfall alone was de-
pended upon. Th,se thoughts are sug-
gested on reading accounts in our West
ern exchanges Of the suffering from
drought throughout large portions Of Ohio
Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Iowa and Mis-
souri,, which are truly saddening. Forest
fires are raging in Michigan, DESTROYING
mills, farms and villages In some places
farmers have to turn out and watch the
passing trains to prevent fires starting in
their meadows and pastures from sparks
from the locomotive. Many are selling
their herds Of blooded cattle and other
stock for whatever they can get, because
they will be unable to winter them. The
vegetation is 50 dried up that some are
cutting down trees that their stock NAV
eat the green leaves Wells and cisterns
are going dry, and it IS some time vet be-
fore the autumn rains ordinarily set in.
The loss il that great agricultural region
is already great, and the prospect is a
gloomy one. We Of Colorado need rejoice
that necessity has driven us to construct
bitches, build reservoirs and fill lakes with
the pure water Of the mountains They
are safeguard against extremes of heat
and drought, and in the main are destined
to make this one of the most reliable agri-
cultural countries of the earth. Every
pond and reservoir, besides furnishing
store-room for water to wet the thirsty
earth, is or can be filled with fish and Weld
a tenfold greater profit than the acres it
covers could yield with grain or grass.

EIogging in China.

4 Chinese tragedy followed by judicial
proceedings and q remarkable all-round
administration of Justice, is reported in the
latest budget of news from the Celestial
Empire. An officer named Telengo hear
ing two of the soldiers of his company
quarreling about money debt, called
them before him and questioned them re-
specting their unruly conduct. They re-
sented his interference and were fiogged
for INSTRUMENTATION. One Of them, Yu-
cheng by name, aggravated his ofiense and
incurred severer and repeated punishment
by two attempts to escape the hogging by
running away. The officer Telengo him
self administered 10 of the strokes inflicted
on Iu-ch'eng, because he considered that
he was getting of too lightly. Poor Yu-
ch'eng was further reported to the General
for further disciplinary treatment. Here
even Celestial endurance was at an end
The man etfectually ran away this time: he
found permanent oblivion in an overdose
of opium. Then the officer Telengo was
tried. He was found guilty of infiicting
excessive punishment and sentenced to be
logged. Ninety blows or half those in
fiicted on Guch'eng, were ordered. The
man who administered the fogging was
condemned to receive so blows; the soldiers
guarding the deceased to suffer 90 blows.
and Ssu-hai the man who quarreled with
the deceased, to endure so blows. The re-
port naively adds: "Yu-Ch'cng being
dead, no further notice need be taken of
his ofense, and his debt to Ssu-hai is ex-
ttnguished. "-London Netcs.

Rabbits ia australia.

The rabbit question is still burning
one in several of the Australian colonies.
Victoria, Queensland and New South
Wales are each of them suffering from the
pest, and their Governments are much ex-
erclsed as to the best means of abating,
not to say extirpating it. In New South
Wales especially, where many of the pas
toral districts have been almost taken Dos
session of by the little mischiefs, a great
deal Of money has already been spent in
attempts to kill them off without, appa-
rently much effect. 4 considerable army
of rabbit killers has been in the field for
two or three years back, and the ranks of
the enemy have hardly been thinned
What the precise method adopted to catch
and kill is we are not aware, bnt the ex-
pense Of the protracted campaign, COM
pared with the number of dead does not
say much for its efficiency. Last year the
payments in New South Wales amounted
to el46,000, being at the rate of about Is.
per rabbit slain. And yet 100000 is a
large number to have bagged in a
twelve-month, and the carcasses might
surely have kept a soup kitchen
going mcrrily in the towns of the col
ony, where so many have been out of
employment, and presumably in want of a
good dinner. The fact that such an i'm
mense slaughter has made little or no i'm
preston on the rabbit swarms, shows to
what proportions they have grown, how
detrimental to the farming and grazing in
terests they must be, and how tremendous
task that Of thep determination has be-
come. Some Other and more effective way
of dealing with tile pest is urgently de
manded. One ingenious suggestion pro-
poses lackals These animals, it appears,
hunt hares and IA ,bits as cats hunt mice
An instance Is cited Of their having in a
few years cleared similarly infested dis
trict OF Algeria. Import .iackals in sutfi-
Gent quantity, set them adrift in the over
run districts, and tlle thing is as good as
done, The Australians will probably be
chary of sanctioning any novel importa-
ton Who would have suspected that the
introduction of few innocent rabbits to
give home look to some Victorian farm
would have given rise to difficulty which
has swollen almost to the dimensions of an
Irish one? Would the iackal, in its turn,
not be likely to bee ONE as troublesome as
the rabbit ?-G ldsg0u Times.
